I actually thought Microsoft was doing pretty well 2015-2020, then these past few years some of their decisions have felt really anti user

They were doing ok. But the github thing and the 11 thing and the edging and now this - I can't wait to buy a machine that can run windows virtualised. I need it for my work apps, but this virt thing has been a dream of mine for a long time. Compartmentalization

Microsoft edges me.

Step one: start Chroming. Eventually you get so high (kill enough brain cells) that you chrome with blue paint instead. That is called Edging.

Yeah, what happened with GitHub?

[-] joe_cool@lemmy.ml 2 points 7 months ago

They bought it and fed it into copilot. My guess what they mean.

Maybe they’re upset that you need an account to use some of the search features?

Bought github, doing shitty ai crap with it etc, forcing logins

I hated them since Windows 8. Ughh. Was the year of my Linux desktop. I still keep a Win7, WinXP and DOS/Win98 machine around but that's it for me.
